I started getting my oil changes at this location because I live close by. I am now a regular customer and have all of my vehicles serviced here. When I move, I will go out of my way to use this shop. The customer service here is top-notch, as well as the auto work. I have spent nearly two decades in customer service As such, I appreciate businesses that prioritize these skills. Rich (Store Manager) and his team are prompt, professional, and provide quality service. Great leadership is apparent and I genuinely hope Midas is aware of it.
The team at Midas in Ankeny is always professional. They look over everything very thoroughly with my vehicle. They do a fantastic job!!
Rich is very great to deal with. My son’s car was at Prairie Point Student housing not running at all. We were thinking it was a bad alternator. The car was towed and fixed. It turned out it was a battery. Love their honesty!! The car runs great!! Thank again!!
Great service and got the job done very quickly. Needed lights replaced and they got it done within an hour.
The Midas team did a great job. They estimated it first and took me out to the shop to inspect the brake pads. There was no high pressure sales push on doing the job. They gave me a fair price for the job and were thorough. they are highly ethical.
Got my car in last minute with what I thought was a burnt out headlight. The guys fixed my cars actual issue super quick, and I couldnt have asked for better service. Going to come back!
Was able to get my ac serviced very quickly. Rich was helpful and got me on my way quickly.
Customer service was apart of the value I received here I Midas. I then returned the next day to get a new battery knowing I could trust them to fix the issue. Thank you Rich, And Tyler, and also the service expert for being a great part of my day. I will be coming back for all my car needs!
The manager Rich is very professional. They changed my tires and did a repair in a quick and timely manner. Much appreciated.
I had purchased an aftermarket exhaust system for my truck. I was having difficulty finding a business to install it. I called Midas in Ankeny and talked to Rich, told him what I needed. He said bring it in well take of you. They did a tremendous job, spur of the moment. Would definitely recommend Rich and his crew!
Glad I went here. Great value with the coupon I found on their website. Would definitely use again and recommend.
Nice people, good service
This shop is excellent. I grew up working on cars so I can tell when folks are rounding corners on their work. Everything this Midas shop does is very good quality work. If I need a shop, this where I go exclusively.
Rich and his team always take great care of me and all of my service vehicles. I was able to stop in recently for a leaky tire, they had it fixed in less than 30 minutes and I was on my way! I would recommend them to anybody!
Honest and professional... always treat customers with respect. They dont try to -up-sell you. A breath of fresh air in automotive dealings!
I had a slow tire leak. I was able to get my vehicle in when I needed and the leak was repaired quickly! I was shown what was causing the link which I appreciate. Very friendly service!!
I’ve gone a few times to see this lads, for two of my cars, and I’m always feeling welcomed, always get the best service. Rich runs a tight ship, no messing about, and always appreciate the honesty I get if there’s looking like more work might be needed. Never pressured to make an extra sale, it’s work that might need doing and I have my choice to do it then or do it later. I don’t go anywhere else for an honest opinion or honest work. Thanks for everything lads!
Second trip to this Midas shop and both experiences were better than I thought. Rich was able to give me options within my budget and never pushed to go beyond it. They offered solutions I didnt think of and completed the work in a timely manner. I will definitely return to this shop.
I recently purchased a used truck that seemed to have an issue with braking. The dealership said that there was no issue with the brake pads. Another automotive shop said the pads, fluids and lines were OK. Rich and the team at Midas said the issue was not the brake pads and fluid but a bad wheel bearing. The fix was expensive but they were up front about the issue and the fix and if the bearing was not the issue a brake fluid flush would be included at no extra charge. Bearing was fixed and the difference was immediate. Appreciate the work, the quick fix and the customer contact.
The manager Rich Wright is such a nice guy and really cares about his customers and always explains everything so well and answers any questions you may have. He will take you into the shop and literally show you what your vehicle needs, unlike other places. I was even in there just this last Saturday and was nice enough to share a pizza with me as I waited. If you want great value, people who are trustworthy and professional, and want a few good laughs, I suggest you take your vehicle here. Awesome guys who care about your and your vehicle. Thanks guys and Rich!
I needed the shocks replaced on my 2012 F250 Super Duty . Midas gave me a couple recommendations and options . They had my truck in the shop within 15 minutes!!! Great customer service and outstanding work. This is my new repair shop !!!
Clean, courteous, and ask before doing any extra work. Very pleased with the gentlemen there working on my car.
The guys in there done a great job on installing my muffler and also minor repairs too my dodge Ram
[Update: (July 2020)The brake service went very well. Everyone was friendly and cheerful. I would recommend calling directly instead of using the Midas website to set up appointments. People locally are better at giving you an idea of appointments and length of time th he service should take.]I was not able to print the coupons. It should be easier. And there was a rebate one that was difficult to understand if the service I would need was part of it. It did look like you could send it to your cell and I though it would appear like a coupon, which it didnt. It would be nice if a coupon could be scanned from your cell. Times online being offered should be actual appointment times. Wasnt like my last time there, didnt feel as welcomed.
Brought both our cars to Midas to get serviced for winter, oil change,batteries for both cars, and just get that Midas touch by Rich and his crew here in Ankeny and they are the best, truthful, and all around good people. Im impressed and they will be taking care of all of our autos needs. Oh yeah, my wife, Jolene said to tell you (Rich) and the guys hi and thanks too. Have a good New Year.
I manage a warehouse that has had a spree of catalytic converters stolen off of our delivery trucks. Rich and the crew at Midas are knowledgeable, courteous, and especially after this last trip are very quick and efficient. They are good people that do everything they can to make up for everything the bad people are doing. Thanks, guys!
Everyone here was so patient with all my questions and took the time to be sure I understood everything my car needed. Services were affordable and I did not feel like I was being taken advantage of as I have at other places. Thank you all so much and happy holidays!
The Customer Service at this location is always superb! I refer people to them quite often. Rich has done a great job of maintaining a positive team environment with his staff, and everyone seems to enjoy what they do. The cherry on top? The work they do is always fantastic and they never try to dupe you into doing anything unnecessary.5 STARS for an all around positive experience!Thanks Rich and team for being my go to spot!
Great service! They greeted me by name when I walked in the door and they were ready to go when I arrived for my appointment. I walked out the door in less than an hour after they changed oil, rotated tires and did an inspection.
Rich and his team are the best in the business. Highly recommended. I won’t go anywhere else for my car’s needs.
I cant compliment Midas and Rich enough. He was honest and fair. Granted we didnt determine the problem but he didnt charge me and provided me options for what I should do next. I rarely experience such honest and kind service these days that he won my business. My wife and I agreed that were going to start taking our vehicles to Midas for their service needs from here on out. Thank you so much
Great experience! Went for an oil change and found a trustworthy place. Rich, The Manager took me out to see what they found under my Tahoe. Some things that needed attention in the near future, but were not safety concerns right away. He gave me all the information I needed to decide on what needed to be done now and what could wait for a short.
Rich is a good dude. I’ve seen him take care of people multiple times when it was of no benefit to him and often a detriment. Quick service too.
I love Midas! The manager, Rich, is very honest and polite. I feel well taken care of when I take my Mazda there to be serviced. Thanks Midas!
They really took the extra step when they bolted down a loose muffler cover during my first oil change there. It was excellent service! I have since taken another vehicle there and also received service that was outstanding. My car needed additional adjustments after 4 new tires and Rich took great care of me. We worked through the details of the issues and he explained my best options. A recent accident had caused other issues missed by the body shop. The car is now driving better than it has in a very long time. Thank you!
Very pleased! They turned on cartoons for my toddler and didn’t mind his running around/screaming. Clean office. The restroom even has a changing table, I can’t tell you how many places don’t. I will definitely be back. Great customer service and very affordable.
Excellent service. Easy to use on-line scheduling for routine maintenance. The work gets done on time.
Rich, the man at the front desk, went over and above to correct an incident that happened to my 2005 van while the new brakes were installed. I really appreciate it and Im very happy my van is working correctly.
Experience could have been better. Best part was the great price for an oil change and tire rotation. Downside was the customer service. When I arrived for my appointment, there was no one to be found in the waiting area/office. After waiting 5 minutes I walked into the shop looking for assistance. When someone did come to the desk I was told the manager drove a customer home (nice of them) but...the person at the desk was not trained to run the computer. Fast forward to picking up my vehicle...I was give a price higher than expected. When I asked about the $19 dollar oil change and tire rotation the gentleman at the desk snapped at me and said I dont recall you giving me a coupon and Im not in the market to give coupons away. In the end he did honor my request to only pay the $19 and change for an oil change and tire rotation. Like I mentioned, great price but customer service could have been improved in this situation.
Nice service
I had my oil change in under an hour. Very professional friendly staff. I had a qoute for new tires in just a few minutes. I appreciated the honesty of them advising I did not need a new air filter. I highly recommend
Rich runs a top notch business in Ankeny! We just moved to the area from a small town where we fully trusted our mechanic to do right by us. Rich takes the time to explain everything to me and ensure me they will only do what is necessary for repairs. I look forward to building a lasting relationship with Midas of Ankeny!
Everyone is always so friendly! Highly recommend Spencer. He’s a great mechanic and super efficient!
Fantastic customer service -- I havent been able to get a spare key made for my vehicle, and within an hour, I had one driven up from the dealer in Clive to Ankeny for my convenience. Rich at the counter scanned my documents, emailed the dealer, and went above and beyond to help me avoid a long drive to the dealer. Much appreciated! Will be back!
Midas always does a fantastic job with my car. They take time to explain everything to me. They even took my back to the shop to show me what was wrong with my car. These guys are the best!
A five star Midas experience. Rich and his friendly staff almost always works me in to get my vehicle serviced the same day I call. Their manager, Rich, is quite personable. He will explain the type of service performed and any mechanical items that need to be addressed.Midas will get you back on the road the right way.
I would like to thank Rich Wright at the Oralabor Road location in Ankeny, IA on the exceptional customer service I received, he went above and beyond. I had taken my vehicle in because my check engine light was on and after having it tested at Autozone I knew it was my throttle body assembly. Rich tested my vehicle again to make sure and it came up with the same error code. He then told me that Ford has extended the warranty coverage on this particular issue but to call and make sure it would be covered. I called Ford and they confirmed what Rich had told me and found out that my vehicle was still covered by warranty and there would be no charge. Rich didn’t have to tell me this and could have made an auto repair sale but he chose not to and I am forever thankful for him.
My first time to this business was a positive one. The manager Rich was very personable, no high pressure sales. I went in for an oil change and they also rotated my tires at no additional cost, getting my vehicle in and out. I made an appointment as walk-ins seem to get backlogged, and I would recommend to make an appointment, especially on the weekends.
Called and made an appointment for an oil change and air filter replacement. They were able to get me in right away, had wonderful customer service and explained tire wear and some other things they saw. Great people, fair pricing--highly recommend!
Midas is very professional, courteous and knowledgeable.
A+ work done on my Honda Pilot. They caught a cracked house that the Honda dealership missed and my car runs better and gets way better mileage now. If you want an honest mechanic go here!
I was planning to visit my parents when I noticed that I had a tire with low pressure. Since it was a 200+ mile drive, I decided to stop at Midas to have them make sure there wasnt a puncture or hazard. They did a full complimentary check and then showed me the things that they were concerned about. Some of the things I was already aware of, other things were news to me. Anyway, I made it home without anything going wrong and my dad made the necessary repairs. He told me that their evaluation was spot on and that I should feel comfortable using their services in the future. Basically, Im glad to know theyre an honest shop that doesnt try to oversell you. I will be glad to do business with Rich and his team in the future.
Tried them out soon after they opened, with a coupon for an oil change - one of the best strokes of luck Ive had!!! Back ever since, and will be!!!Always friendly, accommodating, and expert. Rich is great - low keyed, expert, factual and straight forward - will find a work around for whatever your situation is. His people work on that same premise.If they spot a problem, or potential problem, they show you exactly what the mechanical situation is. Explain it, tell you if its a safety issue or not - provide an accurate estimate of cost - and when it needs to be addressed. (Not like some places that pressure you with fear of potential disaster, either mechanical, financial, or life threatening).Its like trusting your brother, or a good friend - They know what theyre doing. Only sell you what you need or ask for - tell/show you what to watch for in the future - and charge you a fair price for their work, and what they have to pay for any parts/materials.Employee owned partnership, they are there because they WANT to be - and they ARE what they DO, and DO PROUDLY and VERY WELL!!!
A couple times now the services I’ve requested have not all been completed when I’m told the work is done. Little to no explanation for why. This has led to longer waits and much inconvenience. A focus on completing requested services would be recommended instead of trying to find additional possible issues to sell more.
When I made the appointment for my 2013 Chevy Equinox for oil change and tire rotation it was 74.00 dollars. I told them it was a V6. I also said I had a 10.00 coupon. So expecting to pay 64.00 I ended up paying 86.50. They said it took 6 quarts instead of 5. They tried to up sale a tire balance. I rotated my own tires and have never had a problem with the balance. They should know when someone calls in the right amount to quote some one. I am trying to find a respectful auto service business that I can trust. Guess Ill keep looking.
We had an exhaust issue on our truck. Called Midas, talked to Rich. He was able to get me in right away and had my truck fixed and at a good price in under an hr. Great job and I will definitely be back! Thank you!
I made an appointment to get my oil changed. Online scheduling was a breeze. The oil change took about an hour. The lobby was very clean and the chairs were comfortable to wait in. The staff I interacted with were very professional. I will definitely be back in the future for maintenance or repairs on my vehicle. Thanks!
Rich was awesome! Brought me out to my vehicle and made sure I understood what needed to be repaired, told me what needed to be done now and what could wait a while. Great place would recommend to anyone who is looking for a great shop to get work done in a timely manner!
We were from out of town and desperate to get our sons car on the road again. It would not start and needed to be towed in. The guys at Midas quickly determined that it was only a security error. They explained to him how to handle it and he was on the road. We were so impressed and thankful for their help. We thought it was the starter and to find it to be a easy (and definitely cheaper fix) was a real blessing. Thank you to Rich and his helpful staff. I recommend this place.
Very professional, fair, and worked quickly.i brought the car in to get an alignment after installing new steering parts. After the inspection they found the alignment was going to take extra work. They were able to do it cheaper than I thought it would be and were informative about what they needed to do to make the alignment right. The car drives great now!
I appreciate there honesty! I trust them!
Was able to get in for a quick oil change. Liked that I wasnt harrassed for other fixes or maintenance. Simply said I know other things need repaired but was only looking for an oil change today. Rich left it at that. Would highly recommend.
Great location with great employees. I highly recommend.
What a friendly crew.... I stopped early in the morning without an appointment, and they took care of my low tire and had me in the road again before I knew it... Customer service was a priority, how refreshing!! Thank you so much!!
Rich and crew are very honest and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain things to me and did a great job. Will return and reccomend them to others.
Rich is an awesome service manager! He had a full schedule and still managed to squeeze me in! Extremely clean lobby, friendly staff, quick and affordable work. 11/10 would recommend going to see Rich at the ankeny Midas!
First time using Midas. Very friendly staff members and clean environment. I will definitely be using them from now on!
Brakes went out on my old truck. I called Midas and they were quick to get my truck in and replace all the brake lines. Speedy, helpful, and professional! I will most definitely use them again.
The guys at this shop are awesome. They do great work and are willing to work with you to get the right price for the job. I would of been royally screwed had it not been for this shop today.
Ive been going to the midas in Ankeny for a while now and they have been always done great work and the best service Ive ever had. This place has done from brakes to plugs for me.Dont see me going anywhere else ....
Always a good visit there. They are fast and accurate. Rich is a good guy, friendly. It’s a clean trustworthy shop. I would recommend.
Just wanted you to know that Rich, Dan and Bo were great at the Midas in Ankeny.They were polite and patient. Great people skills.ThanksMike S
I take my company fleet vehicle to Midas in Ankeny about once a month to get serviced. Rich and his staff are absolutely fantastic and know their customers on a first name basis, which is hard to find anymore. I don’t know too much about the mechanics of a car, and the Midas staff here has never taken advantage of that. They do what’s needed and what’s right. Thank you so much Rich and staff!!
These guys saved me at least $100 over estimates I got on my brake job. Plus Midas offers lifetime brake pad warranty. Super nice staff. Very fast service.
Very pleased with the service Ive received. Manager is a very straight forward guy and doesnt try to get you for every possible dollar. I am always shown a great level of respect.
This shop is consistently professional and honest. The manager, Rich, is excellent and the staff knowledgeable. In decades, Ive never felt better about a repair facility.
Knowledgeable and very nice. I could see by other customers that many were regulars there. Oil change was a special, but cost more because of the cars I brought in and the pills they require. I would think that happens to many people with the newer cars.
Great service and carefully replaced my bad muffler. I plan to get other services there in the future.
My mother needed new tires for her car and Midas in Ankeny told us about different tire options, the total cost, and we saved even more by using a coupon and an additional promotion they had. Thank you, Rich, and your entire crew for giving us excellent service!!
Midas in Ankeny is the only place I will go for oil changes or a car repair. They are very knowledgeable and good at explaining it to those who are car illiterate like myself. Rich runs a great shop, and I would recommend them over and over again.
Love these guys. Very friendly staff. Have always taken good care of our cars and never feel taken advantage of in regard to repairs that are needed like some other shops.
Always a good experience here. These guys can get me out of a jam, be it a repair I dont feel comfortable doing myself or one that I start and run into trouble finishing. Theyre my Go to Guys.
I was able to get in the day I called and my problem was fixed quickly. I thought the personnel were professional and courteous.
My friend and I each got our cars serviced here. We had several small issues afterward that warranted further service such as a covering removed from heating vents, a leak in a tire, and a malfunctioned glove box door. I since went to the a reliable service department out of town where I initially got my vehicle, and they asked who was servicing my vehicle because they did a very poor and shady job. On top of that they tried to talk me into several things that were unnecessary. Never taking my vehicle to a Midas again, especially this one.
Rich and his crew made an accurate diagnosis, got the parts right away and had me back on the road. Great job!!
Had two tires replaced on an older car, ended up being an absolutely great experience! Thank you Nolan! They really went the extra mile on the work, and Nolan was pleasant, honest, and very helpful!
Great guys at this place; the Easy Pay option is a life saver!
Always a great experience. Fast, affordable, easy to schedule, they do a great job explaining everything.
The crew at Midas is personable and reliable. They have gone out of their way to help me on multiple occasions to include picking me up when I was stranded. They have a fast response time and always look out for your best interest. The guys at the Ankeny location pointed me to the closest Midas while I was out of town and had a vehicle emergency. They even called the other Midas for me and set up an appointment so when I got there I was only there for a short time and they already had all the information they needed. The Ankeny crew always show me whats going on and give me a detailed report and NEVER do anything without making sure its exactly what I want.
Friendly shop. Honest and up front.
Good people and get the repair done fairly quick
Stopped in at Midas Ankeny for an oil change and tire rotation. I have been to other automotive businesses around Ankeny in the past but Rich and his guys do a fast and affordable job and I will definitely use this Midas location again in the future. Rich took the time to show me the damage to my tire and quote me for new ones. His guys had my oil changed and car inspected in no time. Thank you!
The owner is always so nice and explains things so that I understand whats going on. Although going here means I have to spend money that I dont want to I at least know its getting done right and fairly.
Ive had several vehicles there and the service is always done right. They have always allowed me to go into the shop and see what is being done. Im familiar with the vehicles and work on them myself so I know what needs to be done and theyve never tried to pull anything on me. I definitely recommend this location as I trust the people there.
Rich and crew are very knowledgeable, personal and professional. Highly recommend!
Midas is great! I suggest everyone goes there for the best service on your car! And best customer service Ive experienced yet!!!!
I have nothing but praise for these men that worked on my car! Rich took me in although he was swamped with work and found me a new engine with 20,000 les miles on it than my engine that blew up! I will now go to them with all my car needs 😃
Stopped in for an oil change and to have my AC looked at. Fast, efficient, and courteous! Will definitely go back.
These guys are amazing! Simply put you want the best price and the best work go see Rich and his team.
Brakes were squeaking so I called and got an appointment to get my brakes checked and pads replaced. After dropping my car off to go back to work, I get a call 3 hours later saying they had checked my car and the pads needed replaced (among 3 or 4 other useless things that they recommended getting replaced not related to my brakes). They told me 1.5 hours max to get them installed. 2 hours later I go in to pick up my car only to see that it was still in the maintenance garage on the lift with no tires on it. A half hour later I go back and was able to pick it up. 5 hours to replace brake pads is completely unacceptable. Is there anymore quality, customer service based, mainstream car maintenance places left?!
